5.2 Marine Corps Installations transition to new access control system

Marine Corps Installations across the region are transitioning to a new government-owned access control system called Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS). This new and enhanced system will replace RAPIDGate and MCESS for contractors and other non-DoD-affiliated personnel requiring installation access. DBIDS is already installed at more than 320 sites with over 5 million registered personnel and unlike previous systems, this one is a free service.

Current RAPIDGate or MCESS credentials can easily be switched out for a DBIDS credential and new contractors can apply for a DBIDS credential using the same vetting requirements as previously required. RAPIDGate/MCESS credentials will be honored until December 31, 2018. After this date, all contractors will be required to have a DBIDS credential in order to access MCAS Cherry Point. In order to reduce wait time when exchanging your RAPIDGate/MCESS credential, it is highly recommended each applicant pre-register at https://dbids-global.dmdc.mil/enroll#!/.

Here’s what you need to know:

CURRENT DOD ID CARD HOLDERS

· If you currently hold a valid Common Access Card (CAC), dependent ID card, reserve ID card, or retiree ID card, issued by the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS), no further action is required.

· You will be automatically enrolled in DBIDS when your ID card is initially scanned at the gate. Expect a one-time delay of 3-6 seconds as the DBIDS system initially registers your information.

CURRENT CONTRACTORS

· DBIDS credentials will be issued beginning September 24, 2018

· DBIDS credentials will be valid for the duration of your contract, not to exceed five years; however, re-vetting of individuals’ information will occur each year.

· Contractors can exchange their current RAPIDGate/MCESS credential for a DBIDS credential without re-vetting, however they will be required to bring the following items:

- Current RAPIDGate/MCESS credential

- Second form of government-issued identification (driver license, passport, etc.)

- Company Contract/Letter of Authorization

· New DBIDS credentials will be valid for the remainder of the contract (not to exceed 5 years), but individuals will be re-vetted each year.

· All contractors (MCAS Cherry Point) will be able to exchange their current RAPIDGate/MCESS credential at the MCAS Cherry Point Contractor Vetting Office, Building 251 (Pass and ID).

NOTE: Flight line access will still be granted at Physical Security using the procedures already in place.

NEW CONTRACTORS

· DBIDS credentials will be issued beginning September 24, 2018

· New contractors requiring access for over 60 days will receive a credential valid for up to one year.

· New contractors requiring access for less than 60 days will receive a temporary paper pass.

REMINDER: Beginning October 1, 2018, all personnel in possession of a RAPIDGate/MCESS credential will also be required to provide a second valid U.S. government form of identification. Beginning September 24, 2018, DBIDS credentials will be issued or exchanged in place of a RAPIDGate/MCESS credential. The last day RAPIDGate/MCESS credentials will be authorized for entry onto the installation is December 31, 2018.

More information on DBIDS can be accessed by current CAC holders at https://dbids.dmdc.mil/#!/resources.

If you have questions regarding the exchange of a current RAPIDGate/MCESS credential for DBIDS or you are a new contractor seeking enrollment into DBIDS, please contact the Contractor Vetting Office at (252) 466- 4685/5921/3066/3461.
